See every featureExpiryGuard tracks expiration dates at the batch level — each delivery gets its own quantity and best-before date. FIFO auto-rotation ensures oldest stock ships first. Our dashboard shows total inventory "Value at Risk" and flags upcoming expiries before they become a problem. Expired products can be hidden from your storefront in one click. No complex WMS or batch codes required — just add a date and save.
Shopify tracks what you sell, not what you lose. Record shrinkage, theft, damage, short deliveries and returns, or run a guided cycle count and post the variance as costed losses. See your shrink rate against stock and the retail benchmark. A count-due list says which SKUs to count next. A vendor scorecard shows what suppliers owe you, with a claim CSV.
